Fast Fourier Transform

Fast Fourier Transform

The result of Fast fourier transform of a signal is same as that of discrete fourier transform of the same input signal. But, the computational part is reduced in FFT as it uses Cooley and Tuckey's algorithm to compute the result. The algorithm used in FFT computation divides the N point sequence in 2 sequences : even and odd. Thus decomposition reduces calculations.
In this experiment, FFT of 4 point and 8 point sequence was calculated using DITFFT. The comparison of number of real and complex additions and multiplications required for FFT and DFT showed that FFT required less calculations due to parallel processing.

    1. Yes, since some trivial calculations are avoided and parallelism is more.
